Some of us have distinctly unpleasant memories of the ABC's attempt at replacing Carols from Kings with a programme from St Andrew's, Sydney. The choir master and his choir tried hard but were overcome by the grinning jack-in-the-box antics of the Dean. All in English too, of course. Some of us turned it off, I used the mute button on all but the music.
I and others wrote to the AbC and protested about the programme, suggesting they find somewhere who knew how to do such services.
I've just seen that it will be broadcast tomorrow evening on Channel 2 at 6:00 pm and comes from St Peter's cathedral in Adelaide. Hopefully much better than last year.

For those who'd like to see the grinning jack-in-the-box antics (that's a fantastic description Loth) of the Dean, the SYdAng website triumphantly announces that it is to be replayed on the ABC at 7am Christmas morning. I don't want to be put off my Christmas lunch so I might sleep-in instead. ![[Biased]](wink.gif)

Thanks for the warning.
Just the thing for the parent of young children who has been woken far too early by offspring on Christmas morning.
I think I'm safe. Morning TV fills me with dread even when it's not Christmas and it's never turned on at all.

Carols from St Peter's in Adelaide was as different from the dreadful programme of last year as it possibly could be. Vestments, candles, bells, incense, Gospel procession and lot of old carols, many possibly new to some viewers.
I enjoyed it although son was on phone some of the time and I needed to pay attention to him.
Last year I wrote a fairly condemning email to the ABC about the rubbish they served up. I wrote again just now with thanks and congratulations for the turnaround. Sure the sound was patchy in a coup of spots and I could find some minor things I didn't like, but overall it was excellent.
No, I won't be watching the re-run of last year's feeble attempt which is being shown again tomorrow morning.

I am waiting for a courier to ring the security here. My fruit delivery didn't arrive yesterday as courier said there was no such address. Neither I nor the the business owner is very happy about it. He ha d three days of orders to deliver yestrday so farmed some out to a courier.
I need to be out of here to catch bus to church by 8:15. Courier was promised at 8:00. One minute to go. If he's much later, I may just be posting in Hell on christmas Day.

I seem to be monopolising this thread but my delivery has finally arrived at 1025 am. I queried the 8:00 am time I was told. He was busy it seems. I told him I waited all day yestrday and should have been gone by 8:15 today. Grunt grunt and walked off.
I would hope his company isn't used again.
Now to take mini pavlovas from oven. Had 10 done but now need 15.

Christ is born. Hallelujah!
Saw Christmas Day in at midnight mass in Goulburn, and drove home with TP through a silent night, calm and bright after all the early storm activity. A lovely night cap where we toasted our Lord's birth, and asleep by 3am.
Awake at 9.30am, turkey is cooking, and Handel's Messiah is filling the house. Our first quiet Christmas in 34 years.
Hallelujah!!! Hallelujah!!! ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif)

Oh Loth that's awful
My Christmas Day plans fell through due to the illness of the person with whom i was meant to be having lunch. This means I have eaten w-a-a-y too much of the nicest cake I've ever baked as well as some my home grown peas. The only thing I'm missing is the crackers.
The service this morning was special too and afterwards when I was waiting at the bus stop the mimister picked me up in his car and brought me home, which saved me waiting in the drizzle.
Merry Christmas everyone.

Monday morning feeling tired – back for a week after leaving Mataragi, nothing seemed to be ready, cake not iced, cake for the kids had sunk seriously in the middle – like my mum I cook the cake in a ring tin so that it can't sink in the middle but I only have one ring tin. I was really wishing Christmas would just go away.
Then the phone rang. A man who had to sit with his leg up after a knee operation had (plucked up courage?) to ring and see whether the woman who writes letters to the paper was his nice English teacher of 1969. I was, and we had such an interesting conversation. We both recalled an earthquake when we were in an upstairs classroom, when we all froze until I said 'I suppose we ought to get under our desks' and we did.
It made my day.
And Christmas Day was Christmas Day. Christus natus est and all is well. We expected showers; we got sun, temperature 29°C which is more than I can handle but we coaxed a breeze through the house.
Loth, I hope it all came right for you too.

Yes thank you. Delivery man could not see why I was upset just because he "had things to do." After all delivery was due yesterday.
I think it's been about 20°C most of the day, possibly lower. We seem to usually miss out on storms here but there have been several loud claps of thunder and some heavy rain.
Just the weather to look forward to turning oven on. It was pleasant cooking lunch, even if it was fish and oven was not on for long.
I was approached in one of Sydney's larger bookstores some years ago and asked if I had taught languages at a certain high school here. He was one of my outstanding Latin students, then lecturing at Macquarie Uni. I don't know if he's there still. St Doc's bookstall has half a dozen books of his for children. We reminisced.

GG - you got the weather we were forecast. We had drizzle, but it got better later. I was relieved it didn't reach 29 here -it's a bit warm for me too.
Was that quake in Wellington? I remember being in a class room on the upper storey for one about then. The teacher, newly arrived in NZ ran from the room.
Looking back I don't think we really appreciated how bad it could get. One of the tables in the school library where I now volunteer has a dent about 5mm deep caused by somethimg falling on it during the February quake.

After a family service in 40 degree heat, the southerly change arrived just in time to make midnight mass bearable. A quiet Christmas Day, as our children are grown and scattered, but the cool has made for a much more comfortable time than in previous years. Just getting ready for a late light dinner after entertaining friends for a Boxing Day lunch. Much less stressful than in years past.

She was 52. Her name was Rosemary. I had not even met her, yet.
But, Lord have mercy, her death has affected us all. We lit a candle at the window and said prayers for her with the boys tonight, knowing that's probably the most closure they're going to get in all of this.

All I can think is: "Sod off, 2012."
I know it's not unusual for people who are thinking this way to just want to get past Christmas and then not see another year in. But it's bluddy hard on the families they leave behind.
And I do thank God for the Prayer Book and the words to say when there are no words to say. I suppose with such a large extended and still extending family, the hope of getting through Christmas without a family drama is mathematically diminishing. It's just not what I ever want to focus on at Christmasstide.
Thanks for the prayers. It means a lot.
And roll on 2013.

Oh dear, BL.
Like me and probably others, you'll be glad to see the back of 2012. Not the best year for the family at all.
Rexory, How are you people in all that heat? I remember a similar run over here when I was still at school. We were on holidays at the beach and it was too hot to go there when the sun was out. I think we had 10 days of over 110 degrees on old scale.

I think I came across grumpy evensong the other night. A house down the street was playing depressing emo music when I arrived home on my bike after dinner.
If you're in a decent area of town I would recommend going running or cycling in the evening once the sun has set and the long summer twilight starts, or in the morning getting going just as the sky starts turning to that lighter blue. That works for me on the ridiculously hot nights we can get if the wind is coming from the north-west, especially with the beach only ten minutes away on the pushy.

Yes. Good advice.
Tried it out at 5pm. Still four billion degrees however as opposed to three point 99 billion. C'est la vie. Better than nought.
Finished it off with a cold shower, a crisp white and a couple of rollies. (No, I'm not a woman of contradictions. ![[Snigger]](graemlins/snigger.gif) )

I continue to pray for my mother that she may find him as well.

Mum lives next door (at the other end of the building). She puts out an invitation to friends and neighbours to join us all, and there will be around 30 here.
I've made a trifle and mincemeat slices, although the latter have risen a little because I only ad self raising flour to use!
Getting our rest at the moment before people arrive. Happy new year to all.
